Canadian Government announces new policy to help former international students work in and continue contributing to Canada.

January 13, 2021BY Meghana

International students contribute over $21 billion annually to the Canadian economy and support the vitality of our communities. Yet the  COVID 19 has presented myriad challenges for international students. Most notably, for many PGWP holders, the disruption and ambiguity of the pandemic have jeopardized their possibilities of gaining the work experience required to apply for permanent residence.

Honourable Marco E. L. Mendicino, Minister of IRCC, announced that former international students who hold or held a PGWP  can apply for another open work permit as part of the Canadians Government’s efforts to support them during this challenging time.
